CURRENT MISSION

I am out to explore the places I visit behind the scenes of tourism.

ABOUT ME

I am a very easy going guy that likes to try new things and meet new people in different situations. I enjoy traveling outdoors and backpacking and have done various trips in the wilderness of America. My major hobby is motorcycle Riding and instructing. I have been riding for about 14 years now including motorcross all the way to cross country trips. I also teach a motorcycle riding skills class and have been doing so for 5 years now. I have worked in various motorcycle dealerships through out my life and really have gained an appreciation for people that ride motorcycles and how wrong the stereotypes can be about motorcycle riders. The nicest people I know ride motorcycles. I think that my personality is fun and my sense of humor sarcastic. I enjoy doing things spontaineously and off the cuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live I guess. I am always trying to push myself harder to help me accomplish more than what people think I am capable of. I do this for my personal sense of accomplishment. I take my friendships serious if they are genuine and hold my family above everything else. I have two sisters that are my biggest supporters and we are very close.

兴趣

I love Motorcycles and Architecture. I am currently studying Architecture at ISU in Ames Iowa and am in my 4th year of a 5 year program. I enjoy riding motorcycles and do little day trips around Iowa weekly in the summer. Don't have much time or funding for long trips recently. Also enjoy riding bicycles and currently switched to a fixed gear single speed.
